They Should Come to Astoria.

San Francisco, September 81. E.
Sheppard, local agent of the North
ern Pacific Railroad company, re-
turned to the city last night from
weeks visit advertising the company
in Southern California. He stated to
q Postal Press representative this af-
ternoon that he met many eastern
tourists while south, large number
of whom signified their intention of
coming north and observing the re-
sources of Oregon and Washington
territory and proceed homeward over
the Northern Pacific. "It's somewhat
surprising" continued Mr.. Sheppard,
"but nevertheless it is true that an
exodus OF real estate men is about to
take place from Los Angeles and
other cities in the original boom coun-
try. You see, the boomers edge is
kind of dull at the present time down
there and these men are going to
sharpen q new one in the north.
Why, fifteen men who made fortunes
in the real estate business in Pasade-
ma came up with me last night and at
the end of this week or the beginning
of next they will take in Portland,
Seattle and other northern cities, do
some booming and then visit Yellow
stone National Park. Eastern people
who come to Southern California
nowadays / find are not satisfied un-
til they also have look at the north
ern country as well"

FILLING A WANT.

WHEN the eNorthern Pacific Express
company supplanted Wells, Fargo &
Co.'s Express company, that company
withdrew from Pacific county, W. T..
in common with other points in this
vicinity. The Northern Pacific peo.
pie put on no express pouches into
Pacific county, greatly to the incon-
venience of Pacific county and AS
toria. Now in the mutations of rail-
road management the Northern Pa
cific Express company has, in turn,
given way to its successor, the Pa
ciic Express company, which has
been put by the Union Pacific rail
road company on its leased lines.
Thus far it has not taken any steps
toward doing express business in Pa
cific or Chehalis counties, and, If
appears, does not propose to take any.
1t is in the line of:business to direct
the attention of the company to this
matter for it is one of importance to
Astoria. Our banks and merchants
have daily business with Ilwaco
Oysterville, Shoalwater Bay, Monte
sano, and Gray's Harbor. The oys.
ters, lumber, ETC., in that region make
business, and Astoria is the principal
place of business for that region. II
the Pacific express company doesn'i
care or choose to establish offices OF
tend to the business, it may be that g
local express company incorporated
here and owned and operated by Clat.
sop, Pacific and Chehalis county bust.
ness men would be in order.

TIE PROPOSED SUBSIDY.

A COMMITTEE has been selected by
the chairman of the chamber OF COM
merce to take into consideration the
best means to raise the $3.50, 1000 sub
sidy. Positive assurance is made by
railroad men in San Francisco that II
that much money is raised and suita-
BILE grounds donated for depot, round
houses, machine shops, ETC., that the
road will be built inside of year. A
year seems too short: the language of
the resolution adopted by the cham
Der of commerce last Monday night
says eighteen months, which is more
reasonable.
With this as tangible basis there
need be but little difficulty in raising
the required amount. 1t is not a
gift. Not cent of it is required or
expected till the road is completed.
The question is not "How much will
my neighbor give?" 1t is "How much
will the road benefit me?" and give
accordingly. This is a selfish view,
It's true, but pocket interests largely
govern in these affairs. If a man is
benefited 5000 by the road coming
here he can well afford to give one of
those thousands to the project that is
going to benefit him five times the
amount-especially If he won't or
can't make that $1,000 any easier way.
The beginning OF the road would
be the beginning of the enhancement
of value; not till the road. was fin
ished would the money contributed
be expected.
The Historian favors and encour-
ages this with more force than two or
three other plans formerly proposed,
because it comes with greater posi-
tiveness and precision than its pre-
decessors.
The committee consists of the fol-
lowing gentlemen: Geo. Flayel, Jno.
A. Devlin, c. w. Fulton, Jas. Taylor,
I. w. Case, c.. 81. Page, J. o. Han
thorn, b. Van Dusen, w. w. Parker,

They are requested to meet at the
rooms of the chamber of commerce
at 7:30 this evening to organize.

The New Bar Schooner.

The new Columbia bar schooner
g. c. White, arrived in yesterday
evening with pilots Gunderson, Sta
Piles and johnson aboard, eleven days
from San Franisco. and docked at
Flavel's wharf, where a good many
went down to see her. She is very
neat model, has wide decks, and is
nicely fitted up below. She is 81 feet
over all, 221S feet beam and draws
about 10 feet. She is 1851 tons
burthen, and cost about 81, 500 com
plete. She has two masts, the fore
mast 6S feet long, the main, 20 feet.
From the latter extends boom about
IS feet long which carries consider
able canvas. The pilots express them
selves as being entirely pleased with
her sesgoing qualities and say that
with fair wind she can make ten
knots. an hour. She has about 40
tons pig iron ballast. The crew re-
port heavy weather all the way up.
Pilot Staples says on her trial trip
in San Francisco bay she just walked
away from the Allen and other fast
sailers.

THE state board of immigration has
suspended for want of funds. 1t
was created by the legislature OF 1885,
which provided funds for two years,
but the legislature which met last
January made no further appropria-
ton. 1t never did this part of the
state much service, but it helped the
state in general as any institution OF
the kind is sure to do, no matter how
it is managed, and it is not in the line
of progress to abandon such an enter
prise just as it had got fairly started.
1t is but fair to say that nothing but
the private subscriptions of Portland
merchants kept it alive for the last
six months of its existence,

LONDON, Sept. 6.-The Ddly
Standard says: There is a sad SINH
larity between the Exeter theater fire
and previous disasters of a like char
acter and suggests culpable disregard
of the teachings Of experience.
The Ne1OS says it is safe to say
that one effect of this awful disaster
will be general law governing the
construction and management of
public places throughout the king
dom. After this terrible accident
and that OF the Opera Comique in
Paris, we ought, surely, to require no
more such warning.

TERRIBLE DEATH.
LONDON, Sept. 6.-The victims of
the burning theater Royal were most
ly working people. As soon as the
flames were put out a large force be-
gan searching for the bodies. The
stairway leading to the gallery was
literally packed with bodies, while at
the head of the stairs scores OF 9TH

The unfortunate victims had rushed
to the door when the alarm was Civ
